SlotUSA on ebay

[Firewire]

This is who I bought my Batman from (under $300 shipped). Got a great deal, but it was dirty and knocked up a bit. They did send a replacement bowl on the front, but it was just as dirty and scratched as the original. I was able to buff out the spare bowl they sent to look better.

The whole machine had to be cleaned upon arrival (very dusty/dirty). It was packaged quite well! The legs supplied are inadequate, but since I bought a wall cabinet I didn't have much issue with that.

Balls were used and about 20-50 were rusty.

They were responsive to my issues, so I would buy again if the price is good. I would hesistate to pay a premium though.

I'll be curious to hear how Arby's Popeye comes to him. I'm sure he paid premium and I would hope they would take more care and feeding when they're being feed more...

I got my LOTRings from them, it was clean, but inside i still found a lot of smoke res-ado . but i am quite picky so i cleaned every noke & kranie with Q tips and 180 grain alcohol.

I told them on the phone when I bought it, no hurry, just want it clean and working well.

Yes I paid through the nose, I wanted it. and didn't want to waddle on the bay for it. :roll:

Remember big boys have big TOYS! :smt003

well after almost one month i finally got my 2,000 balls from slotusa.

naturally the bags are coated with rust powder inside.

now all i have to do is clean the little buggers before i use them.

Rub-a-dub-dub Lucky Dog in a tub cleaning his balls.

All joking aside, That is sad, they could do better!!!!

[Tulsa]

They would save themselves a lot on the backend if they'd just pay a little attention to the product they are shipping...

[luckydog]

i put about 150 in a sock and roll them around in CLR, then rinse and dry them.

i counted them by weight and they are right on the money.

they must use a ball counter.

[arbycoffee]

I got a ball counter.

1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 - 10

feet

11 - 12 - 13 - I lost count

[luckydog]

i have an old postal balance scale that goes to 4 pounds,

i count 100 tokens or balls and weight the rest.


it is very accurate :lol:

[arbycoffee]

i got one of those penny scales that gives weight and fortune, I had it gone thru by a scale company, it is dead on.

I bought one of those vibrating tubs for ball cleaning. Works good, but is very time consuming. I left it on for about 2 days before I could see a big difference.

Oh and by the way if you buy one you can get the walnut shells at Pets Mart.

I haven't used it since, so at $60-70 it may have not been a wise purchase.

I spoke with SlotUsa the other day. They are looking at offering Pachinko wholesale pallets (similar to the 12/24/36 deals they have for Pachislo).

They may start the offer later in the year.

[Lddrizzt]

COOL! A dozen low end machines full of dirt and grime! Not to mention the pitted and scratched up chorme and plastic, and don't forget the 500 little round rust nuggets with each machine!

Oops, sorry the voices in me head took over again and made me speak with my outside voice again.

[johntofva]

My "Thunderbirds" I bought from them was a little banged up and I am pretty sure there was no attempt made to clean it.

[arbycoffee]

The other sideÂ…
Every machine I have gotten from them has been very clean, a few skuffs, but they polished out.

Maybe it is like cars, those built on Friday are time bombs, those build on Wedsday are jewels ?
